As Englund charts Napoleon’s dramatic rise and fall—from his Corsican boyhood, French education, astonishing military victories and no less astonishing acts of reform as First Consul (1799–1804) to his controversial record as Emperor and to his exile and death—he explores the unprecedented power Napoleon maintains over the popular imagination.
